I got on the Internet and got a virus, it must be the modem.

/sarcasm

Once again great Rom. I am having some issues with weather apps and 96 DPI but that is others cabs, not you NRG.

I am however having an issue with Opera Mini that someone may know the answer about. When I try to enter text on any text box or the start page the number buttons act like those on a regular cell phone instead of a normal Dash keyboard. Its not major but if someone does know the answer please reply. If I missed the answer in search then my bad.
[HTC Excalibur] killa-mckilla:
NRG... i know im sounding like a record, but can u please tell me where the windows mobile screen is located

i threw your ROM in a kitchen and was able to change the initial splash screen and animated.gif to whatever i wanted, but cant seem to figure out the windows mbile screen

someone stated it was ms_splash.png, but i dont see that, and if i dropp one in "windows" i dont get the "copy or replace" option... so im thinking thats not right

any help is appreciated

ps..love the rom, even if it is a bomb :)
[HTC Excalibur] blackshin0bi:
Yea I want to know if there is a fix for Opera also, it's really annoying. And alienski could you take a pic of your Dash so I can see how bulky it is with that extended battery on it? :p
[HTC Excalibur] killa-mckilla:
nevermind... the kitchen says it cant build the htct :( im getting really sad
[HTC Excalibur] alienski:
Here are the photos of the extended battery. The cover that came with it is the same rubberized stuff as the rest of the phone.
[HTC Excalibur] phuKKah:
LOL Your Excalibur has a tumor

I like where this is going, let me try.

... umm...

I spilled my drink everywhere. My cup must be defective. I guess I'll just flash to the old 22 oz. cup until the 32 oz. is updated to a more stable point.

[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
I dont know dude... If I did... it'd be gone by now :P
[HTC Excalibur] killa-mckilla:
fair enough.. i appreciate ya

BUT, i have an update

so i reflashed the phone using the "change boot/splash screen" instruction on the xda wiki

to make it work, instead of changing your "mainsplash.bmp.nbh" to ExcaIMG_USPL_1110000unsigned.nbh"

instead on this ROM it must be renamed to "EXCAIMG.bmb.nbh

and run the RUU updater that comes with this ROM ...not the one suplied in the wiki

hope that helps someone

im still working on the windows mobile screen

i dumped the OS in a kitchen and still cant find it,
[HTC Excalibur] sphinx780:
open OM, menu>tools>settings and uncheck Auto-complete address input.
[HTC Excalibur] frauhottelmann:
It is ms_splash.png, but I don't know if you can replace it! NRGZ28:

It's located in SYS\Base_dpi_131_resh_320_resv_240, check it!
[HTC Excalibur] reggaepoo:
I have a problem. Ever since i flashed to the EnergyROM Series 1.0 21048 - HTC Snap based ROM ** || Build 52409 |, I cannot connect to my Excalibur via WDM or Active Sync. In the USB Settings, it should say 'USB Default, but just says 'USB. Anyone knows where i can find the reg key to change it?

Thanks
[HTC Excalibur] alienski:
Thanks for the help.
[HTC Excalibur] alienski:
I'll tell you what, it may have a tumor but in a location with very spotty signal, running the newest version of this Rom, I was at 52% battery after 2 days.
[HTC Excalibur] killa-mckilla:
im telling ya. im searching for ms_splash and now for sys\ sys\base_dpi

im not finding anything.

when i dumped the rom the only pic i found was the EXCAIMG

im searching using the registry editor and total commander

so idk, but it's annoying

ALSO, is there a way i can not have to choose "all programs" in the start menu, just automatically show all programs?

thanks
[HTC Excalibur] killa-mckilla:
Does anyone know the difference between the "starting windows" animated.gif and a regular random animated gif ?

i replaced the original with one i found on the internet and now i get some crazy lines :(

is there something special i should do in gimp/photoshop to make it smartphone safe?

thanks
[HTC Excalibur] PCn3rd:
having a few issues

first things first, i bought this phone through tigerdirect and it came unlocked with WM5.. i installed the EnergyROM Release 52409 and love the looks and functionality of it. I ran into a few problems.... im not the type to develop things on my own, but if there are written directions i would be able to follow it.

1. Phone always says that there is too much memory being used and i should try closing programs before opening other ones. But its weird bc nothing will be open, and i try and open the camera and it says memory is full. is it just a bug or is there a way to fix this?

2. Im trying to use .wav audio files as my text, e-mail, and alarm notifications. except when i add the .wav files to the my ringtones folder, they only show up in the ring tone section and not any others.

3. On the main screen of WM6.1 with the sliding panels, is there a way to get my SMS, MMS, Outlook and other e-mail accounts on the same tab? im tired of scrolling down, i would rather see it go to the right or left.

4. some keyboard functions dont match up when using the FN key (!,&,%,$) the only one that works is the question mark. is there a file i could install over the old one, or something i can do to fix it?

any help you can provide is greatly appreciated. thanx
[HTC Excalibur] jcarloss:
is there a way you can add application to it.. apps like vito audioplayer, ringtone editor, game linerider and others.. thanks:)
[HTC Excalibur] whombeartoe:
I have a huge problem!!! I reflashed the Energy rom build 52409 and now the screen just says:

"This concludes the beta test of this software release. Thank you very much for you time and effort in helping to make this a great product for out customers.

To obtain a newer release or further information, please revisit the web site that you used to obtain your current beta release."

What do I do? I tried reflashing other ROMs but it doesn't connect or responed. It just displays the previously noted message.
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Trust me... If I coudn't find it in my kitchen.. you're not gonna find it by dumping the ROM. LOL My guess is it's hiding somewhere in the NBH encoded in a weird way :)

You should know better :D
[HTC Excalibur] Bigmannyjr:
pull the battery, put it back in. Do the hard reset. I worked for me. Untill this morning when I made a phone call. i could not end call and when I removed the battery I got the "This concludes the bata test.." screen. That was while running 50909. I just flashed 52409; I hope it holds?
[HTC Excalibur] 10507:
Just notice that you edited your first post, have you added an update on this ROM.

I am currently running Release 52409, and it is very stable for me, but cannot wait for you next release.

Thank again for your great work,

10507
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
I do plan another release. But I'm patiently waiting for the WM6.5 release for our phones. Soon, soon ;) If it doesn't come soon enough, I'll do another 6.1 release :)
[HTC Excalibur] skaroger867:
is 6.5 on any smartphone yet? and what would it look like on SP, titanium instead of sliding panels?
[HTC Excalibur] joeskull:
So... is the memory leak problem solved?

Did the registry change work for everyone?

I haven't tried myself, I must confess...:o

Regards.
[HTC Excalibur] reggaepoo:
Hello NRGZ28, do you know how I can get WMDC on Win Vista to recognize my excalibur? It is not picking up my device. Any Ideas as to what i can do to solve this problem? I have an ipaq hx2790b and that works fine. The excalibur stopped being recognized since I flashed to 52409. Your guidance on the matter, please

Bless
[HTC Excalibur] 10507:
Wow, I didn't know they'll release WM6.5 for our smartphone. Anyway, thank you for your hard work.

Patiently waiting for your next release.

Thank

Does anybody knows how to add second to the clock on the home screen?
[HTC Excalibur] whombeartoe:
Thanks a lot....I did tried the hard reset 3 times and the 3rd was the charm. Don't know why it didn't work the first 2 times. It's all good now. I re-flashed 52409 and working just fine.

Made the memory mod and works even better:

"I searched HKLM\System\Storage Manager\FATFS\CacheSize key on google, and saw that it has been mentioned in many places to improve perfomance. (By increasing the value) But, it is also mentioned that it should be set to a value other than zero to see performance improvements. (eg, http://www.ppcsg.com/index.php?showtopic=82489)

I increased this value to 8192 now, I also applied the other mentioned tweak in the previous link, that is,

HKLM\System\StorageManager\Filters\fsreplxfilt\Rep lStoreCacheSize = 4096"

Ram is continually at 18-21mb.

Thanks Again.:cool:
[HTC Excalibur] DonutYankee:
Oh, LOL, I just had the time-bomb go off. I forgot to upgrade to the newer release. Re-flashing now. I was wondering what happened and then checked this thread. Good thing got everything on that SD card. Flashing the new release now. :)

I would also like to know, not really important though, probably shouldn't even be in this thread xD

[HTC Excalibur] skaroger867:
i dont see a box with a red x at all. lol.
[HTC Excalibur] phatmanxxl:
I guess I need to use my Dash to see it.:rolleyes:

wierd it dosent even show up on my Dash. I wonder what it is?

And to stay on topic...I cant wait for the final release!
[HTC Excalibur] 10507:
Yes, I am having the same problem. Does anyone know the date of this WM6.5 release?

[HTC Excalibur] orb3000:
Yeah!!

I´m sure our dear chefs are going to impress us soon:):)
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Yep.. Got my hands on the emulator and dumping it now. Build 21234 seems to be final for 6.5 Standard. Loaded up the emulator and low and behold.. it looks EXACTLY the same as 6.1. So don't hold your breath for anything spectacular.. maybe more speed. Maaaybe.... :)
[HTC Excalibur] orb3000:

As you mentioned I was not expecting nothing really new

But hopefully as you said more speed!:)

"Beta software trial finished"

My phone just keeps having a screen that says beta software trial finished blah blah blah. I don't know whats its for, but its rendered my phone completely useless. I did a hard reset- and fixed it, but a day later the same screen poped up again. I was using 05909a- hopefully if I update to 052409 all my problems will go away.

But is anyone else getting this screen? I don't know what software is causing it...
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
Sounds like M$ timebomb on the ROM in question nothin you can do about it except change ROM.
[HTC Excalibur] phuKKah:
You should have updated to the latest energyROM like NRG warned us to do.

issues

windows media player cant play videos and windws live would be nice with messenger and maybe ie6 again
[HTC Excalibur] Bigmannyjr:
They've got a .cab for windows live. and the TCPMP player works better then windows media player. How often do you use ie?
[HTC Excalibur] pcdo:
Hi, I was wondering if anyone knew how to change the "Get more..." label that has replaced the T-mobile service label on the home screen through the registry. Thx.
[HTC Excalibur] phuKKah:
Wait... what?
[HTC Excalibur] LGBTQ:
no ms voice

I installed the rom flawlessly but ms voice is missing. I use it quite often so i jsut went back to wm 6 :(
[HTC Excalibur] pcdo:
You know how it states at the top of the homepage what wireless provider you're connected, ie T-mobile etc? Well since I've installed the rom instead of saying "T-mobile" it says "Get more...". I remember there was a way to change that in the registry, but just don't remember exactly how.
[HTC Excalibur] JordanMcSwifty:
Just flashed it on, It was a mission because it wasnt working on my vm on my tower but my roommate let me use his comp. Just from playing with it for the past five minutes, while trying to turn off t9 texting whenever I got to input options it just types "z"

Anything on that?

Also how do I get the weather thing working? Im very excited about this! Thanks!
[HTC Excalibur] phuKKah:
Hmm, I've actually never had that problem xD

Because normally when your phone radio picks up a network, it pulls the name data and displays it on the homepage. The only time mine doesn't saty "T-Mobile" is when I'm at my house, because I literally get NO service and it says "Searching..."
[HTC Excalibur] whombeartoe:
Me again...Is there a fix for Windows Media Player not playing Mpeg4 video. It only plays audio. TCPMP on the other hand, plays Mpeg4 video, but not the audio. Thanks in advance.

Also, I've been trying to install money management programs, but they all require .NET CF ver 2.0, and it won't install.
[HTC Excalibur] Bigmannyjr:
That's odd! My Windows Media Player doesn't play video, But my TCPMP plays both well. Try opening TCPMP , options, 3. Video, 5.Video Driver, chose 1. Raw FrameBuffer. Hope that helps.
[HTC Excalibur] whombeartoe:
I checked the setting and it is set to that config. I failed to mention the 1st time that it does play AVI, but, it's the Mpeg4 that doesn't play properly.
[HTC Excalibur] kr33mo:
I have been using the ROM and agree with everyone that it is pretty nice. One thing I was wondering is can the "T-Zones" button be used to access "Inner Circle" instead of celetask? Celetask can be moved to the settings panel similar to Kavana's ROM. Or at least can you let me know what I may need to do for the first part. Thanks.
[HTC Excalibur] phuKKah:
This isn't Kavana's ROM though, so if NRG thinks celetask should be set to the T-Zones button (which I agree with since I use it alot) then that's gunna be what it is used for.
[HTC Excalibur] kr33mo:
Actually the celetask is currently set to the T-Zones button...I was just suggesting that the inCircle was used instead (where the button is on the snap) or maybe it can be used for both. Short press > celetask, long press > inCircle. Now that would be cool!
[HTC Excalibur] yipcanjo:
Hey! Volume up/down control change!!

As someone who (personally) finds the JOGGR strip to be fairly irritating, I've been pushing for quite awhile now to have someone move the in-call volume adjustment to the D-Pad. Seems simple enough, but no one has ever done it.

Anyhow, I was using my phone yesterday, my face hit the JOGGR strip (ARGH!!!!) and I noticed that the up/down on the D-Pad controls the volume! Whoa!! Sadly, it only works when the volume has first been triggered by the JOGGR strip, but it's getting close.

Anyone know how I can fully & finally move the in-call volume control to the D-Pad only?
[HTC Excalibur] skyline247:
Wow what a ride.

I have been away for a while. Had to go on a business trip. Lucky me, I might get to have a temporary position through my company at a Pharmaceutical manufacturer in Germany. Whoo hoo. :( No, really, I am just being sarcastic, I really don't want to live in Germany for 6 months, but duty calls, oh well.

Well while I was on my adventure it seems my Excalibur had a little adventure as well. Got bitten by the time bomb, and let me tell you, it wasn't a pretty sight. Tried reflashing I know at least a dozen times. Threw it across the room at least 6 of those times. lol. Not really, felt like throwing it out the window though. Fortunately, I was able to flash back to the original Dash. I miss the 6.1 however and have a question. Does the new 52409 have a hidden time bomb as well, or does anyone know?

I also have a second question, if I may. I am on my third phone through warranty with T-Mobile. Here is the scenario. I get my phone from T-Mob and the phone works great when I first get it. I have good reception, and even excellent reception when I flash it with the EnergyRom. Then, after about two weeks (on the first and second phone), in areas where I had excellent reception, I go down to 1 bar, if any. My Sister has T-Mob as well. We were up town and we both looked at our phones, while she has 5 bars, I have 1 if any. I even tried reflashing the phone, and still no reception. I should also note that at home I use an antenna and adapter that plugs into the back of the Dash. It isn't possible that the ROM's would be causing this is there? If it isn't the ROM's, the only thing else I can figure is the antenna adapter. But I am inserting it as per manufacturer specifications. Has anyone ever experienced this. I am kind of at a loss, as the Dash is my first smartphone and the first time I have used an external antenna on any of my phones. I also don't think its possible that I would get two bad phones from T-mobile.

Anyways, going to flash to the new, non time-bomb ROM and hope for the best.
[HTC Excalibur] marcp2:
Just wanted to know what the update status of this rom is due to the 3vo WM6.5 rom just released... I hope it doesn't deter progress on the work done by our amazing chef! I simply love this one! Great work man! Looking forward to the new 6.5 updates and hopefully IE6!

Now, if I can only extract those ringtones from the rose rom (i think), i got used to some of those...
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:

[HTC Excalibur] yipcanjo:
I keep reading about folks running into a "timebomb" on these ROMs. Is that going to be true for everyone? Mine is running just dandily (0509 version), though I haven't rebooted in quite some time.

Confused :confused:
[HTC Excalibur] jhwo99:
Just received my HTC Snap.

Great phone !
[HTC Excalibur] phuKKah:
Search the forums.

This ROM can support the same every other cooked ROM can.

16gb confirmed for sure.
[HTC Excalibur] marcp2:
very cool! :D standing by to test your awesomeness! :)
[HTC Excalibur] marcp2:
haven't found too many bugs yet, in fact the only gripe i have about this perfect rom is the quicklist, if you can please leave "silent" on the first page! i think others will agree with me there... dont care if you break something, but just leave that there! lol
[HTC Excalibur] marcp2:
Whats all the fuss about inner circle? Since you are requesting this kind of button mapping, i must be missing out on something good! lmao! i'll have to check it out...
[HTC Excalibur] whydoihavetoregister:
any idea on the memory leak? just flashed to the newest one, and initially i was sitting at about 20mb. memory now sits at 12mb (13mb at the highest). cant seem to free up any more.

is this going to be fixed in another release, or has this rom been abandoned? this is my fav rom by far, so thats why im asking.
[HTC Excalibur] thenikeman:
Go back to Page 51 I think...it has some registry entries that can be changed.
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Not abandoned at all.. Did you not read my previous post at least ? LOL
[HTC Excalibur] CrappyAkita:
First off I would like to say that I downloaded this ROM yesterday and it is awesome! Great Work!

They only issue I seem to be having is connecting the device to my PC with USB. I am able to connect to my exchange server w/ no problems but cannot get activesync on my PC to sync.
[HTC Excalibur] yipcanjo:
Argh! The "time bomb" hits!

So... my 0509-based Energy ROM finally time bombed on me. After rebooting, it states "This concludes the beta test of this software release.", and it does nothing after that.

How do I fix this? My PC doesn't see the phone in this "state", so I'm not even sure how to reflash with another ROM. What options do I have? HELP!!! :eek:
[HTC Excalibur] yipcanjo:
I posted a bit prematurely, and was able to "reset" using these instructions...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=493266

I'm back to square one with a functioning 0509 ROM. Does the 0524 ROM have the same timebomb issue? If so, what's the best option for me here? Try the WM6.5 ROMs instead?

Thx.
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Why would you flash back to the timebombed ROM ??????????????????
[HTC Excalibur] yipcanjo:
Well... primarily because it was the easiest thing to do in a pinch! Also, I'm waiting for an important phone call *AND* leaving on vacation tomorrow, so I had to do something. :)

Is the 0524 ROM *not* timebombed?
[HTC Excalibur] jaisal:
First, By far the best looking virson.

However, cant get the weather to select the city in home screen .

The "e" internet button when selected goes to celetasks.

Any fixes.

i dont think the weather has worked at all, i just disable the panel. still a great rom
[HTC Excalibur] 10507:
Mine seem to be fine. My ROM doesn't experience any of the above problem. But long press on the home button doesn't launch Voice command. Other than that, everything work perfectly.

Hopefully NRG will cook up a new version soon. Can wait to test it out.
[HTC Excalibur] phuKKah:
I'm about to punch a baby in the face xD

Everytime I open my browser, I go to my XDA/Excalibur bookmark to see if theres an update for this ROM =PP

In due time I suppose.

Just keep working at it NRG, because I'm sure once you switch over to 6.5, it'll be the best 6.5 EVER xD
